Update: Corksport finally heard back from Autoexe. It's shipping on Dec 20th from Japan and usually takes 11 days to reach Corksport after it's on the boat. So it looks like sometime after the first of the year now.

Bummer.

patience is a virtue. haha. that's what i learned when dealing with stuff from japan. it's always long as heck.

u planning on painting the pieces or showing off the weave?

TheBri

I don't plan on painting them. I'm thinking they are going to look quite sinister on a white 8 in their none-more-black CF glory.

carbonfiber on white looks good.

Another update:

Autoexe had some sort of problem/delay with all their CF manufacturing (raw materials maybe?) and the parts didn't ship on Dec 20th as they thought. I got an email today from Corksport informing me that Autoexe finally does have the parts on a container that is bound for the port of Portland, OR and is due to arrive on January 15th. Finally!

I'm not blaming Corksport for these god awful delays. It's not their fault at all. It is frustrating though every time a date comes along where I think I'm going to hear "the parts are in" and instead I hear "it's going to be another 3 weeks".

I'll take pictures of everything when it's finally installed as well as pictures of the Escort Passport SR7 + shifters, window tint, and whatnot.

Hey Bri. Can't wait to see it. That will definitely look sharp. Black on white will be a smart combo.

Is the rear splitter the front splitter only reversed?

shaunv74

It's for those high speed chases in reverse.

that **** is gonna look schweet....

if i had a white....i would definitely go with the cf splitters.....
especially since im a cf ho by trade....

Don't like it. Looks like a shovel. Seen it on several cars with different kits.

Looks ok on some but no good at all on stock bumper.

It might look better if the car has a lower air dam.

Probably look sweet on the bottom of a Mazdaspeed bumper.

Another update!

I've got an appointment scheduled with the kids at Corksport to have the Autoexe CF kit installed on Thursday (1/25) this week. Yea! I'll be sure to take a bunch of pictures post-op. And I'll probably start a new thread instead of burying them in this one.

I agree, CF on white looks killer. AutoEXE stuff is sweet, too bad so expensive.
